- Lyrics and Music by Willy Richter, 1937.
"In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. And the earth was waste and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep, and the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said, "Let there be light", and there was light. Genesis 1:1-3 ASV
I was introduced to this song as a member of the Purdue Varsity Glee Club in 2010-2012, and have loved it ever since. I believe it appropriately conveys the wonder and awe of that moment.

Clearly not the standard SATB congregational format that I typically sing. This is one from my college days that always gave me chills, and wanted to take a moment away to share it with you. Like the Palestrina song I recorded a couple years ago, this one took a little extra effort!
With the quality of your work, it's quite obvious that you like a good challenge. I really love hearing (and watching) your videos. It always adds joy to my day. Many thanks.
🙂💖📖🎼🎵🎶May you be richly rewarded by the Lord,
the 👑God of Israel! 🙏🏻Amen❣️
It's beautiful, I keep relistening!
Desafio compensado no céu e na terra. 🙌
Continuarei assistindo pois é uma lembrança inigualável de quando cantei no Coral.
Deus continue lhe inspirando.
"Portanto, meus amados irmãos, sede firmes e constantes, sempre abundantes na obra do Senhor, sabendo que o vosso Trabalho não é vão no Senhor."
1 Coríntios 15:58
Pretty sure you did that memory justice, there. I know I hear parts in my head from those choral days but you are able to reproduce it!
The most beautiful rendition I've heard on this song. Glory to God.
Amen, Rosemary.
I think this might be my first
Hauntingly beautiful. God is Good indeed
Agreed! I have chills but in a good way! ✝️🙏
Amen!!!!!
Very different musical style than most of us are used to hearing. Thank you so much for sharing it with us. As always, beautifully done.
Thank you! I always enjoy sharing different styles here and there.
@@Acapeldridge If you could ever do a behind the scenes video, I would be really interested. Have listened/ watched your video's for quite some time now.
Thank you that you share your God-given talent with us. It's a big encouragement to listen to this. It lifts up my heart, to our great God.

Thank you!
Wow! Just, wow! Sophisticated, beautiful, theologically rich.
I find most songs that stick to the original to text to be theologically rich 😊
I love how your video turned to color with ... "And there was light". Your music is always a blessing.
Wonderful! Praise God!
Absolutely STUNNING ! Brought me to tears !
I adore how the part where 'the Spirit of God moved up on the face of the waters' sounds like the musical version of ripples on the water's surface
You made my day, this is just stunning. I am a musician but most importantly, I am a daughter of the living God and this music was just beautiful. You took my breath away. Thank you. Shalom from Derbyshire England.
♥️Thanks for sharing Roemer 11,36 "Denn von ihm und durch ihn und zu ihm sind alle Dinge; ihm sei Ehre von Ewigkeit zu Ewigkeit! Amen."
What an incredibly beautiful rendition of creation. God has greatly blessed you with an immense gift. Praise God!
This is a song I have never heard before, thank you for sharing it. It is good to serve a God who created, gives meaning and purpose to life. I like the timely use of color, and as always your singing is outstanding.
Wow! Such a cool and drastic shift in the song when the "light" came on! Powerful! Well done!
Wow, God bless you! That's beautiful! Great performance.

Wonderful! I enjoy all your music, but this was exceptional! Thank you for sharing. -ScottyMont, U.S.A.
wow... amazing. The song, the arrangement, and your voice.... 👍🏼
💫🌌✨😯Amazing hymn, I didn't know it and it would definitely be very hard for me to sing it. 😇Thank you again for your hard work and for teaching some of us new hymns❣️
✨🪐🙏🏻Praise the Lord 👑God Almighty ❣️🌌💫
Was not expecting that. That was absolutely incredible. I love how C.S. Lewis depicts creation as a symphony in 'The Magician's Nephew,' and I've always enjoyed envisioning the creation account as a cacophony of glorious sound between God's voice and creation responding.
Wow. The sheer joy of creating light and life from darkness and nothing, all expressed in one song.
Wonderfull!♥
I have never heard a beautiful start like this in my entire life of listening to your songs may god bless you
Wow, my Father and I have been listening to you for a couple of yrs now. We treasure every song. This one here... sooooo wonderful, unlike any you have done before. Love the words. You are so gifted and talented. And love the love you have for our Almighty God. Thank you Jesus !
To God Be The Glory
For ever
And
Ever

Good sunday, today with the blessing of our Lord! I have just listening on Your new song, dear Michael Eldridge from “Acapeldridge”. I did non knewing what I can be espected because this song, I never heard is. But the way however You start to sing this song about the Lord had created … I did inmediatly very wide open mine eyes and ears, until You have finished. It was and is for me a very properly song to sing at each sunday. It is the loudness or silence in this song combined with the Words and all of that means. The creating of the heaven and earth, and about the waters. Its just of the Lord dit it again, but I knew He did not. I have to say You again, Michael Eldridge from “Acapeldridge “, You and all the otters who are helling You, did a very amaging and wonderfull job! I hope and pray for You and all Your familymembers and helpers that God Will bless You. With a very friendly, heartwarming, blessing great, Agaath Vlietstra from Katwijk on then Rijn, the Netherlands 0:05
